Outlook addon to make mail rules/filters?!!?!?

At first I KNOW THAT OUTLOOK INCLUDE RULES/FILTERS!!!!!!
but when you store your mails on a Microsoft Exchange Server
the rules are limited (32 K per user ..... 64 rulez).

For this reason I need an extra tool to filter my mails local on my machine
and put the mails in some folders after the mails arrived into the inbox folder.

Exist a tool like this?

OR:

Although the limit of 32 K exist I can still create rules on my machine....only the 64
rulez are updated on the Exchange server....for this reason it would be cool to have a script
or tool that run automaticly all my rules on the Inbox as "Run Rules Now..." button do that.
this is the solution!!!

'Apply this rule after the message arrives from webmaster@forum.com and on
this machine only move it to the Forum folder'

I get this message:

'One or more rules could not be upload to the Exchange server and have
been deactivated. This could be because some parameters are not supported or
there is insufficient space to store all of your rules'

why try Outlook to udate this rules on the Exchange server when I creat
client side rules only???

Create rule > check the run script option > will now see these Subroutines select the one you want usually is mailitem.

When mail arrives will now give popup boxes (Test), problem arises when you need to create tests that require the code to open the mail such as read the body, you will get an iritating security box (if you want to rid your self of this you will need to read this:

Once you have confirmed that this works you can then go about customizing to your needs.

Under other versions of Outlook you would need to have a scheduled task to check new mail.

OR: Streamline your current rules, I don't kow of many organisations that really need that many rules. You can usually cut them down with a little careful planning, e.g. avoid moving mails every mail from different individuals into their own folders, user the views or categories instead.
